I got a job at the Samaritans. I tried to phone in sick yesterday but the bastards talked me out of it.

What are you on?

Go on Lou, tell your fellow boozers about your horticultural experience, you know, the one with the massive leccy bill. point:

?

?
Whacky Baccy ~ takes a lot of leccy to grow it. Needs heat and light. Honestly you are soooooo angel1 at times
-
Netherlands. Of course. Even Mrs Nick got out of her tree there noooo:
It was those cakes!

Well you know things being as tough as they are these days in the wallet department, Mr Bosse and I decided to set up a little garden in our garage growing weeds, 150 plants in total, went swimmingly for a number of years, then PC plod got a whif and came a knocking, end of the good life, although we got off quite lightly, just a leccy bill of over €4,000 sad24:

eeek:

Dunno 'bout in Holland but in the UK the leccy companies now tip off the plod about anyone with a large bill. Large being relative to the size of property that is because the way prices are going we all have large bills anyway.
I gather that in the Netherlands whilst "licenced" cafes may sell weed one may not grow it ~ which seems a little odd.
All this talk of large bills will no doubt attract DS with a Duck joke or two ~ there now I've spoilt it for him eveilgrin:
-
Ah ha, but we did not have a large bill, we were naughty and bypassed the metre angel1, we only got the large bill as a fine when they realised what we'd been up to...........................................BAD GIRL
Just a note, weed is not legal in Holland, growing it, or smoking it, you may smoke it in cafés it is tolerated, but it is not legal. It is legal to purchase the stuff to grow it, but not to grow the seedlings or to actually grow them or smoke it. rubschin:

That's what I love about Holland ~ they have a perfect sense of compromise about most things ..... just so long as you don't rock the boat.

What boat?
bypassed the metre
I give up!

You should try living here Banghead

The boat of tolerance ~ because of which I wasn't going to mention that a meter measures whereas a metre is a measurement cool14:

Smart arse cussing:

I quite like AMsterdam!
Is E(i)ndhoven thereabouts? What a dump!
-
Amsterdam is a great place ~ if you can put up with all the Australians laying about the place.
Eindhoven is a nice city ~ very clean I recall. I like Venlo a lot too. Spent many a happy day there.

There about's where? zThere about's Amsterdam, there about's Eindhoven? Eindhoven is about 100kms from here (here being Rotterdam), dunno how far it is from Amsterdam, Rotterdamers don't typically associate with Amsterdamers................... rubschin:
